MK Villains Land Announced for Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom

[TheDisneyParksfanC8]

I doubt they have much to announce at this point.

I also think there's a good chance they're struggling with the design in terms of making something that's interesting and doesn't feel like it's essentially just a land from one specific movie (one of the reasons I don't think a Villains land is actually a good idea). They're probably not in position to show much because they don't really know what it's going to be yet.

FWIW, Moth seems to think the plan for Villains is close to being finalized and will be showed off officially at either Destination D23 or D23 2026.

2026 would make the most sense to me. Be weird to make a big deal out of it at smaller event.

Can anyone else see this getting canceled? The lack of further information on it and it being so far out form everything else makes me think it might not even happen.

It doesn’t feel very real yet.

Disney has almost never kept us up to date on how a new attraction is going.

Don't know why people think lack of info means the ride is in trouble.

All the rides temporarily and permanently paused due to the pandemic is not an indicator of widespread cuts in scope of announced projects. There is no pandemic now. At least, not yet.

This is the wrong way to think of this:

1. I want information.​

​

2. And you're not giving me information.​

​

3. WHAT ARE YOU HIDING!!!!?​

Rather, it should be:

1. I want information.​

​

2. We don't normally give out updates on project. ​

​

3. Oh. OK.​

I can very much promise that it is still happening. As others have said there are still a lot of details to be decided upon but if what I’ve heard about the current plans is true then it’s going to be pretty exciting.

Also I will say that there is a WDW project that we have gotten a good amount of info about that could end up being scrapped but is still moving forward at this time.

I could see a little tease at DD23 -;maybe a new concept art - just so folks know it is progressing but then at the 26 Expo have the full model and full details, etc

Door coaster? Indy?

Door coaster? Indy?

I honestly don’t know. I was just told that a ride announced at D23 is already facing the chopping block.

I have a couple theories but nothing to really back them up. The door coaster seems pretty far along so I highly doubt it would be cut at this point and Indy is possible but since they can’t keep dinosaur how it is and have Tropical Americas make sense so I doubt it’s that.

Again ~ everything is happening ~ until it isn't.

Is it maybe the Cars attraction that's replacing the southern part of RoA? I mean, it kind of makes sense for it to be me most likely to be cut/scrapped because of its reception so far and I seriously doubt anything Tropical Americas or Monsters Inc related is getting cut as I think they're too developed to be cut.

I thinking maybe they will cut the smaller kid friendly cars ride and keep the main attraction.

also I could see them back tracking on the Muppets coaster.

Funny how Disney putting itself out there to discuss current projects is a sign that those projects are all getting cut.
